Frozen Pomarita (Pomegranate Margarita) for Cinco De Mayo

May 02, 2012

We are huge fans of pomegranate juice at my house. I like to put a splash in my water bottles, but the kids will drink it by itself. This recipe for Frozen Pomarita is perfect for Cinco De Mayo, or anytime this summer, when you want a cool, frozen cocktail beverage. I love that pomegranate juice has so many wonderful antioxidants and healthy properties helping prevent cardiovascular disease, prostate cancers, erectile disfunction, sports recovery problems and more. For more information and studies, see Pom Wonderful and check out their new lite flavors, such as blackberry lychee green tea, and Peach passion with up to 50% fewer calories.

Frozen Pomarita

Prep: 10 minutes
Yield: 1 serving
Ingredients
1 ounce freshly squeezed pomegranate juice* or POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice
1 ounce tequila
1 ounce triple sec liqueur
3/4 ounce fresh lime juice
11/2 ounces simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water dissolved together in cold water)
1 Ice
1 Salt and lime for garnish (optional)
Preparation
1. Combine first 6 ingredients in an electric blender. Serve with salt or lime, if desired.

Notes:
* This cocktail can be made with freshly squeezed juice from a POM Wonderful Pomegranate or by using POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice. To juice the pomegranate, cut it in half (as you would a grapefruit) and juice using a citrus reamer or a juicer. Pour mixture through a cheesecloth-lined strainer or sieve. One large POM Wonderful Pomegranate will produce about 1/2 cup of juice
